Скачать или смотреть Navigating Child Arrangements: Avoiding Court and Prioritizing Welfare

In this episode, we explore the complexities of making child arrangements without resorting to court proceedings. Discover why avoiding court is often the preferred approach due to its high costs, delays, and stress. The Children Act's 'no order principle' encourages parents to reach agreements independently, with the court stepping in only when necessary to achieve a better outcome.



Our discussion highlights the importance of the welfare principle, which places the child's well-being at the forefront of any decision-making process. Learn about the factors considered under the welfare checklist, including the child's wishes, educational and physical needs, and the impact of any potential changes.



We also delve into the initial steps parents can expect when consulting a solicitor, emphasizing the case-specific nature of child arrangements. Whether through mediation or court proceedings, this episode provides valuable insights into making informed decisions that prioritize the child's welfare.
